Nicki Minaj may be mum on rapping back at the rap wrangle birthed by ex-friend: rapper Remy Ma, but while Foxy Brown is prepping an in on the rap-wrangle over a mere line by which she feels she was caught in the line of fire on where Remy Ma threw her in the line of fire:
Meanwhile, across the water, Nicki is busy burning up the runways of Paris prepping to send tongues wagging in a different way that rap wrangling tongue wrestling.
For years-since she’s been on the scene, Nicki Minaj has been accused of trying to emulate rapper Lil’ Kim’s style as apart of her rapping come up.
Legend has it that rapper Lil’ Kim did indeed start the “Barbie” ‘so-call,’ then along came Nicki Minaj who personified it and as many believe: put Lil’ Kim’s persona right on in the shopping bag with it.
Fast forward.
While Nicki Minaj has yet to respond to any of the two rap disses dished by Remy Ma, Nicki obviously decided to get us all talking about her in another way. In what seems to be a (strategic?) move that’s sure to take the spotlight off Remy Ma and back on her. Nicki came on out with a notorious Lil’ Kim staple and (yet again) personified it: The titty pasty.
Advertised as “9..9.99” pop and rap fans and pop culture aficionados like myself will never forget 9.9.1999: The day of the notorious MTV VMAs where Lil’ Kim stepped out in a daring purple off the shoulder number designed by Sean ‘Puffy’ combs’ baby-mama Misa Hylton Brimm.
The riske’ number was made such that Kim’s boob hung out of the off the shoulder no-shoulder portion of the jumper—with just a purple pasty to cover the nipple to match the rest of the suit.
Diana Ross was tickled.
(Mary J. Blige looked a combination of embarrassed and envious at the same time).
We never forgot it.
Fast forward.
Nicki obviously never forget either.
She was pictured taking to the runways in Paris this week wearing a skirt and off-with-the-shoulder no shoulder number–boob hanging out and nipple covered with a pasty, too.
